Summary: Trish survives a horrible car crash only to end up in a coma. But while she is in the coma she experiences the greatest love story with the most unlikely man.
Distribution: This is for an Original Character story I am writing offline but thought it would also work for fan fiction. If you want to post it anywhere please ask permission. I am an equal opportunity writer.
A/N: I think I need to clarify something for those of you that don't quite understand how she can be pregnant. They did sleep together, more then once, in the spirit/coma realm that Trish was in. How she is pregnant in real time is something you will have to read on to find out but please, for the sake of the love story, please expand your imagination. Also, for those of you that gave your heartstrings, they shall be returned two chapters from now. Thank you for the support and believe me, with the success of this story, there will be others like it.
He paced the halls, waiting for the results from the pregnancy blood test that Trish had just taken. She had just gotten finished telling him that she was pregnant and as much as he wanted to have children with her, he had to wonder if this was not just another delusion of the coma. He wanted to marry her, and as far as he was concerned after listening to her explanation on it, they were indeed married in the ways that counted, but he wanted to make it legal as well.
'Just how am I going to make it legal when she is fine with the way things are now?' he thought to himself as he allowed himself to pace the halls, making skid marks on the floor below him as he did.
When he married Rebecca in front of co workers, friends and family he had thought for sure that she was the one. Everyone told them what a lovely couple they made and that if they didn't last, it meant that people really couldn't be in love. Well now, later in life, they were divorced, they had two kids they still hadn't explained it to because of age, and he was falling in love and married in the mind and heart to another woman. What happened if he was wrong again?
Before he could think any further on it, Trish's doctor came striding confidently down the hall. Now that his patient had made a full recovery, minus the turmoil her body endured in the crash, he had reason to.
"Shawn, we got the results back. Do you want me to take you in there with me or do you still need some time?"
Shawn needed a hell of a lot of time, of which he didn't have at that moment. He had to know for sure if what she suspected was true, even though she was convinced already that it was.
"Tell me something Doc. In your professional opinion, can a woman actually get pregnant by someone if she didn't sleep with them?"
"I would have to say no, and that is a medical fact that even you know in your head. Nothing about this case has been by the book though, and now with having to run tests for pregnancy when you didn't sleep with her lately, well it just off the charts for me."
He was right about that, nothing had been by the book since the say she entered the halls of this hospital and went into the coma. Shawn had been a part of the most romantic love story of all time and now there was a chance that on top of marrying her somewhere he didn't know, he also made love to her and they may have produced a child. If God wasn't at work here then he didn't know what the hell was. None of it made logical sense to anyone other then the three of them, and Mark.
"So is that all? Do you need me for anything else?"
"Not out here I don't. Let's just go into the room and you can tell us straight if there is a chance she is pregnant at all."
"Did we succeed in bringing the two of them together?" she asked him as he gazed out what looked like a window to life.
"We did in spades. The two of them were the two loneliest people I have ever had the pleasure of coming across. It was only a matter of time before something higher stepped in and nudged them to where the belonged."
"Was it necessary for you to make the young woman pregnant?"
He turned then, glancing in the direction of his life partner. They had been through everything in their time on earth and now, as angels of the greatest love, they lived to create the same in other needy people.
"I believe that it was dear. If we hadn't, then there wouldn't have been a romantic end to this story at all. They needed each other, more then either one of them wanted to admit. It seemed fitting that they got to enjoy the one precious thing life gives us."
"Do you think that after all we have done to get them together, that it will work out for them? I would hate to put two people together again and have it fail."
"No dear, they won't end up in the wrong place. They are meant to be together. Trish's brush with death just made that more solid of a commitment. If they could get through that and still believe in their love, then they can defeat anything."
"Not to mention that they also have us on their side."
"That is the truest thing you've said all day. They now have the power of the greatest love of all to guide them."
"So what did the test say Doc, what can we expect in the next nine months?" Shawn asked as he held onto Trish's hand tightly. He had now come to expect the unexpected between the two of them and somewhere deep in his soul, he knew that they were going to be having a baby. It was the perfect end to the greatest love of all.
"I don't have a medical reason for what I have here, but for the record, your wife was indeed right about what she felt inside of her. She is indeed pregnant, and the date of conception seems to coincide with the story the two of you have just filled me in on."
"So our comatose love making resulted in a pregnancy is what you are saying?" Shawn asked, slipping his hand out of Trish's and immediately down to her tummy, where the smallest of babies was now located. He loved both of his children equally but there was something running through his veins at the thought of having a baby with the woman he knew he really loved.
"Yes sir, the two of you are going to be parents. Congratulations guys. I have other patients but if in the next little while before the release, you need anything, please feel free to find me or have me called."
They said their goodbyes, shaking hands and hugging. The doctor had been there through it all. He had known something was wrong from the start and now that it was all solved, they owed him more thanks then words could express. Shawn knew in his heart that the doctor had done everything to bring Trish back to him.
"Are you okay?" Trish asked, after the doctor had left to make his rounds and after minutes of dead silence.
"Yeah I'm more then okay baby. I was just thinking that's all."
"What were you thinking about? Does having a baby with me right now freak you out a little?"
"God no Trish, if anything, having a baby with you will complete my life's work. I had the years of wrestling, but what I really wanted the entire time was a love that knows no bounds, and a family that I can really be a part of, mind, body and spirit. I have all of that now and I couldn't be happier, no matter how it happened. The love was always a part of it."
She thought about what he said for a minute and then looked back at him, seeing the tears in the corner of his eyes.
"Then what are you thinking about?"
"How much I want to take you down the aisle. How soon do you think you can make a break out of here?"
She smiled, and took his hand into hers again, letting him feel her pulse. It had been the first time that he really felt that they were both alive again. She let the silence say everything she couldn't. They were in love, they were married in the ways that counted, and as soon as they could make a break it would be legal. Most of all, through it all, they were a family.
